Re: Good!
True. These suits had no merit whatsoever. Sad that MetroPCS was on it to. That's because those a-holes don't have enough capacity. Big Red is just being their usual greedy selves. Nothing new
Re: Verizon Wireless Sets Its Sights on U.S. Cellular
Mark_S said:
Ya think?
Hmmm it has puzzled me why U.S. Cellular is still in existence. I guess the problem is they're still profitable hence why they haven't going crying to the big boys for help yet. But they will sooner or later.
Re: Good to see Sprint standing up for what's best for consumers.
Versed said:
Of course it would have been quite OK if Sprint took over TMO? What crap.
Exactly and these suckers like CamelTowing and Slammer actually believe Sprint is out for the best interest of the consumer. Such B.S. Sprint wants to make a buck just like every other company out there. They're just mad cause a rival beat them to it.
The deal is going through whether anyone likes it or not. If NBC/Comcrap went though so will this.
Re: Im on ATT
Rich Brome said:
In two years when they actually merge phone lineups, there will be far better phones available.
Exactly. We'll probably be using LTE by then anyway and AT&T has spectrum for that in 700Mhz and who knows maybe they'll have pentaband phones to future proof

that Apple has the money to buy anything it wants. I used to think they could only afford California judges (remember the the iPhone 4 prototype search warrant), but I guess they are movin' on up to the east side. Who knew.
Yup. Apple is the new M$
Don't hate the player, hate the game
Sprint insulted the Germans with that $20 billion offer. This is a business. What were DT to do. Go with a failing company like Sprint that abandons technologies, makes bad business deals and bleeds customers or go with a cash rich company like AT&T who utilitzes the same technology?
This is a business. People are in it to make money. You think Sprint/Clear gives a flying phuck about the consumer? They're just hating cause they were outbid so now they're ...

That's rich coming from someone who spells the word associates as "assosicates"

He tried to send an email, but the 2.5ghz wimax wouldn't penetrate the screen door on his porch, so it never went through.
I love you. (no homo) You took the words right out of my mouth
Dear Sprint
You should tend to your own garden before complaining about someone else's weeds. Why don't you STFU and work on getting out of debt. Clear wants to know where their money is. You made countless bad business decisions and abandoned technologies and do nothing but bleed customers quarter after quarter. You get all these shiny gimmicky devices that you refer to as "innovative" to try lure in custoners but no one wants you because you still suck. Even Big ...
Sprints always been good at this...
They have been good at getting innovative handsets and they had a lot firsts. But in the end, it's all style, no substance. They just don't know how to commit to things.
Re: Sounds like Sprint is bitter
Great Gadsden said:
Not necessarily true. I think we can all agree that the Sprint Nextel merger was the most epic failure in recent wireless history. It's a dark remembrance of poor business decisions. But you must remember that the merger started in 2004. It wasn't until 2007 that Hesse joined Sprint. Since his arrival, he has literally saved Sprint from a once-imminent doom.
He set many trends in the wireless industry, such as Any Mobile, Anytime and 4G. He ...
Re: Sounds like Sprint is bitter
T Bone said:
Maybe but....Sprint's incompetence and inability to compete is the fault of no one but Sprint.....Sprint isn't smaller than at&t and Verizon because those two companies are engaged in some kind of nefarious conspiracy, it is smaller because Sprint more or less sucks, and people know it.
My point exactly. It may be a bitter pill to swallow for some but thats the sad reality. Sprint sucks. Plain and simple. Between Sprint, AT&T and Verizon there are about 246 ...
Re: Well thank god it wasn't Sprint!!!!
Exactly Jeff. Thank you. I'm last person on earth who is anti-consumer and gets joy out of seeing thousands of hard working people lose their jobs. I'm in the industry myself for crying out loud. I got a wife and two kids. Don't mistake me for the Tea Party now lol.
I'm not exactly 100% happy about the situation but I feel it was for the best. DT didn't have much of a choice. It was either go with ...
Re: AT&T&T-mobile
CellStudent said:
What's that letterhead gonna look like...
8O 8O 8O 8O 8O
It's an acquistion NOT a merger. It will be AT&T - period. The T-Mobile name will be a thing of the past. At least here in the US.
Verizon doesn't need Sprint
But I could see it happening
Re: "Sprint...has too many financial problems"
CamelTowing said:
They never are with this putz! :lol:
Awww you can't handle the truth so you have to resort to petty name calling. Isn't that bit childish?
All because Sprint posts a little profit gain doesn't mean they're doing well. If you would actually take time to do research you'll find that their stockholders are still very nervous. Google is your friend but don't use it on your Evo though. It doesn't have enough stamina to last an hour with ...
Re: "Sprint...has too many financial problems"
Great Gadsden said:
So, I take it facts aren't going to be used in this discussion?
Money talks and bull$hit walks.
Well thank god it wasn't Sprint!!!!
Ok the initial shock is wearing off..
So what if we have one GSM carrier. We'll have all the coverage in the world and spectrum galore!! Not only that but us magenta users wont have to worry about boarding Sprint's sinking ship!
This was the only logical outcome honestly. Sprint and T-Mo would have been impractical and not in the best interest of either party or the consumer. Sprint uses different technologies, has too many financial problems, etc. Let them ...
WTF??!!!!
Is this for real? :o :o :o :o
Re: Hmm... they need to make sure it has 2 things going for it.
mycool said:
1) Low latency on initialization.
2) Low lag between communications.
That's what the old technology offers, so users will expect the same.
Either way they dont have a choice. iDEN will be dead just like AMPS. So they can either adapt to the changes and accept the future or move on to another provider or their choice. It's time to move forward not backwards
A step in the right direction
Hope Sprint doesn't phuck it up
Re: nice...
CamelTowing said:
This looks pretty cool. Here's hoping this is a better build quality than the Galaxy S line. The cheap plastic feel of them steered me towards HTC. I like Samsung a lot so this could be a great device.
SamSUCK is all style, no substance. They make pretty screens and UI's with colorful iOS-esque icons but fall short on features like a camera flash and use the cheapest possible materials to constrct their devices. Not to mention they dont ...

Re: Why earmark 800 MHz for CDMA?
CellStudent said:
It would make a lot more sense to put LTE in the 800 MHz band and run VoLTE, no?
It's not like they need more CDMA capacity (in the areas where they already have service).
Well great minds think alike! Thats what I've been aruging about all this time. Their argument and others will be that the higher the frequency the more bandwidth. But I'd rather have lower speeds with more reliable coverage over having ****ty coverage with ...
Sprint WILL Fire Up Nationwide LTE by 2013
Sprint Will Fire Up Nationwide LTE by 2013
Today, 3:44 PM by Eric M. Zeman
Speaking to investors, Sprint's president of network operations, Steve Elfman, said that WHEN company decides to switch from WiMax to LTE, it WILL light up the network and have devices as soon as 2012 and have nationwide coverage by 2013. Elfman repeated that Sprint HAS evaluatED its 4G network position and it HAS MADE a decision THIS year about a INDEFINATE network technology ...
Re: Why?
Rich Brome said:
Why wouldn't you want to use two apps at the same time, or browse two web pages at the same time? I can think of tones of situations where I'd use it.
I can see your point Rich but without a dual core processor, 4g and a front facing camera, I can't see it flying off of shelves.
Re: what about the EVO???
DE 2 Philly said:
Yea, really, wtf!
I'm really puzzled. I don't think the question towards HTC was asked by an American. It just doesn't make any sense. myTouch 4g has a second generation processor. No reason whatsoever why that shouldn't be upgraded.
whoops my mistake Desire is mentioned...
But seriously WTF HTC??? U.S. Cellular? How the phuck does a lowly carrier like that get updates before Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile? Those carriers have ten times more users. Oh well thank god for xda
None of those phones are available in the US...
US Cellular has the Desire. Just plain "Desire" NOT the HD or Z variant so they're not getting this update going by how the article reads. Weird. Was this question towards HTC asked in Europe or something? Cause theres no mention of US based models such as the Evo, myTouch 4g, Incredible, etc. All high end models. myTouch 4g has second generation processor. Absolutely should get updates
Why?
That's all I have to day. SMH
Wasn't this and the Evo released around the same time?
So why did HTC did take 8 some odd months to update it to Froyo when the Evo got it 2 months after release?
Re: WiMax=Dead

Sprint can't even keep the light son on that network.
lol true I forgot about that.
No WiMAX? No FFC?
Seriously WTF Sprint??
Re: too little too late...
ElTriste said:
Maybe if it had a 4in screen, wimax, and came out in NOVEMBER people would consider buying it. I loved my pre, but hps moving at a snails pace in the wireless market when everyone else is a rabbit.
Exactly. This is gonna drown in a slew of Android devices complete with 4"+ screens, dual core processors, LTE, etc. iPhone 5 coming out too? Put a fork in it, it's done. Haven't these a-holes learned anything from the initial ...
Re: Wow!
GettingSleepy said:
The same people who buy real estate and expect it to increase in value by itself
Yeah I could see that. In the same manner one buys a catchy domain name on the internet hoping some company who wants it will approach them for money
No thanks SamSUCK
You won't pull me in with your fancy SAMOLED screens. You don't support your devices and you do things wrong like using your own file system (RFS = Retarded File System) which gives your Android phones lag. Then you pathetically try to copy iOS by implementing TouchPISS which is ugly and patronizing. If I wanted a phucking iPhone I'd buy one a-holes!
Last but not least, you always somehow seem to phuck something up by always falling short. Like not ...
Re: When is it going on sale?
Jayshmay said:
Samsung was ambitous with getting its original Galaxy S smartphones out to all the carriers of the world. They didn't play the b.s. exclusive game with carriers with the original Galaxy S.
Yeah but they favored certain carriers over others. Like giving Sprint the cream of the crop with the Epic. Giving it 4g, front facing camera, a camera flash and a physical keyboard while other models like the Vibrant, Captivate and Facinate had to play second best. So ...

If you ask me, and that's only if you ask... I think Androind needs a major overhaul.
So does iOS. It's had the same tired look for years
Re: HAHAHAHA
cwcanty said:
everyone keeps saying how great WebOS is, but until its on a 4in slab with crazy specs it wont take over. This is now the 3rd rehashed version of a phone that didnt sell that well to begin with. HP needs to do better and listen to their customers. If you put WebOS on a 4 or 4.3 inch screen people would be jumping through walls to leave android and iOS.
And the veer is DOA ...
Re: You got to be kidding me!!!!!
awesomedeals88 said:
Battery Life is only 3 hours talk time. That is the worst battery life for any android phone.
I don't get how the Thunderbolt (also LTE)which has a 1400 mah battery is rated as having twice as much battery life. Plus it has a bigger screen and probably a more powerful processor.
Was the 3hr quote based on LTE mode only???
